In this episode, I sit down with Tessa Shannon, a destination wedding photographer whose career has been shaped by bold moves, evolving creativity, and trusting her gut.
From shooting $50 sessions in Vancouver to building a thriving business across Australia, New Zealand, the Philippines, and now the U.S., Tessa shares her real journey: the risks, the pivots, the style evolution, and the mindset shifts that helped her grow.
We talk about staying aligned with your values, learning through failure, and finding the courage to take your own big swing .. whether you're in year one or year ten.
It’s a reminder that you don’t need to have it all figured out - you just need to start.
